This is even better news for electrification of public transit & commercial vehicles! One of the chief arguments for delaying electrification of buses & taxis is the battery age question. If you can't drive it much beyond the break even point compared to ICE vehicles, there's little incentive to convert now. If you could get 40% more life than advertised, that's a game changer!
